Discussion: Maine Gov. LePage: If We Can't Build A Big Enough Fence, Let's Look At China

Probably because he’s too fat to climb a ladder. So he assumes anyone else would just turn around if they saw a wall.

LePage figures if the gated and walled off communities have kept those neighborhoods free of minorities, why not a wall along the border. A utopian America for many conservatives would be walled off towns, villages and cities.

The Great Wall of China was built over centuries. The Ming wall was built by tyrants who spent their subjects lives like water and emptied their treasuries to build a fortification of questionable value given the number of men it took to defend it. I can see how that would appeal to someone like LaPage, however.

I guess he’s never seen Mulan.

Easier way to control the borders? Put Christy in charge of the bridges.

When Gov Lepage was reminded that the Great Wall of China did not prevent the Rape of Nanking, he said he sympathized deeply with Nan and the entire King family.

The man is as tone deaf as anyone in the Tea Party. Honestly – his ancestors came from Up North. So did his damned opponent.

LePage. Michaud. For God’s sake – break out the poutine and tap (what’s left of) the maple syrup strategic reserve.

Incidentally, I’ve wondered if LePage is a true American. Or if he is an actual human being and not a creature from a distant planet. Hence – M. LePage: donnez-nous votre certificat de naissance, s’il vous plait!

Incidentally, building a wall between Maine and Quebec / New Brunswick would not only mess with the price of maple syrup (and, thus, maple-bacon donuts), but will interfere with Canada’s long awaited plans to mass-market curling, amateur Celtic fiddling and GreenGablesCon to the people of northern New England.

All of which is to our detriment, naturally.

That was only during Prohibition when they were trying to smuggle Labatt’s into Detroit.

Maybe LePage could hire some illegal immigrants? Or prisoners?

I thought China built the wall to keep people like LePage out.

It’s why people like LePage are shaped like pears.

Building a wall with slave labor sure would solve the problem of having to raise taxes. Maybe he’ll suggest running all government functions that way.
